Folks, you need to accept that not everyone will agree with what you're
saying and get over it. No matter how hard you try to enforce your point,
the other people are free to make their own opinions.
No offense, but you need to accept the limitations of managing a list. You've no control or say in what one listmember may or may not send to another listmember off-list, and I'm sure many an argument/conversation that has been deemed off-topic has been taken off-list. This is exactly as it should be. We accept that list-moms and nannies have control over the list and keeping things on topic. We all understand the need for rules regarding messages to the list, but I'm confident that I'm old enough and competent enough to handle whatever someone sends me off-list, and if other members can't then they need to grow up.
I truly enjoy being a member of this list and having access to the wealth of knowledge the members bring to the group. But, if you're going to get into a pissing match and start grabbing for control over what I send in private to one or two people on the list, then this isn't the list I want to belong to. Email is about the freedom and ease to communicate with people, for better or for worse. It's a freedom that everyone has access to no matter how smart or brain-dead they may be. Let's keep it that way.
